    The Garage door is only around 5 years old and the weather striping on the bottom of door pulled out of grove where it belongs is there any why one can fix it so it will stay in?  Mad  Mad  confused 

    Is there a cement that you can use to hold it in the grove?

    I cannot tell you the name of the door, I looked all over for the name of it. You would think that there would be a name on it.

    I don't recommend that you glue the seal to the door. The key is to have the correct seal. If it's a "T" seal where the "T" parts of the seal slide into the retainer then you'll need to get the correct size "T". If it's too small it will fall out & if it's too big it won't fit. It may be 1/4" or 5/16" "T". Or you may have the single "T" seal or a bulb seal. Obviously knowing the correct type of seal would help. There's also another product on the market where the seal and the retainer is all one piece and is easy to install. You just screw the retainer to the bottom section. I'm sure one of your local garage door companies either has this product or can get it for you. You'll need to tell them the thickness of your door & the width of the door.

    The fact that the weather stripping on the bottom of your 5-year-old garage door has come out of the groove where it's supposed to sit is actually a fairly common issue. There are a few potential solutions you can try to get it properly reinstalled and stay in place:

    Reinsert the weather stripping: First, try simply pushing the weather stripping back into the groove along the bottom of the door. Use a plastic putty knife or similar tool to gently work it back into place. Make sure there are no twists or kinks in the stripping.

    Use adhesive: If the weather stripping won't stay put after reinserting it, you can try applying a small amount of adhesive or sealant into the groove before pressing the stripping back in. This can help it adhere and remain in place.

    Replace the weather stripping: If the existing weather stripping is damaged or worn out, it may be best to completely replace it. You can purchase replacement weather stripping kits designed for your specific garage door model. Carefully remove the old stripping and install the new one according to the manufacturer's instructions.

    Adjust the door's bottom bracket: Sometimes the weather stripping can become dislodged if the door's bottom bracket is not properly adjusted. Check the bracket and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the door is properly aligned.
